Dino Fact!
Ankylosaurus (Fused Lizard) is an ankylosaurid from Late Cretaceous North America! Its most well-known defense was its tail club, but it also had four horns on the sides of its face, which would prevent predators from going for its head!

Zuul (after the Ghostbusters villain) is an ankylosaurid from Late Cretaceous North America! The species name Z. crurivastator means "destroyer of shins," after how ankylosaurs defended themselves, breaking a predator's legs with their club tails!

ダスプレトサウルスはミドル級って感じで、パワーもあってスピードもそこそこなイメージ。
「はじめの一歩」の鷹村とか、「刃牙」の愚地克己とか、あの辺の感じかな(*´ω`)

Dino Fact!
Chialingosaurus (Chialing Lizard) is a stegosaurid from Late Cretaceous China! Like Tuojiangosaurus, it had a distinct look so they could themselves apart from other stegosaurs! Its spikes ran all the way down its tail instead of just the end!

Ugh, still no time for social media thanks to a manic workload. Here's some driveby #FossilFriday #paleoart of the Brazilian spinosaurid Irritator predating pterosaurs, from 2018, to keep my feed from drying up entirely.
Dino Fact!
Tuojiangosaurus (Tuo river lizard) is a stegosaurid from Late Jurassic China! Its backplates were narrow and taller than most stegosaurs, likely so they could tell each other apart from other stegosaurs they lived with like Chialingosaurus!

Dino Fact!
Dacentrurus (Very sharp tail) is a stegosaurid from Late Jurassic Europe! It was technically the very first stegosaur ever found! It originally went by the name Omosaurus, but the name was already taken by a prehistoric crocodile!

For my dino friends that confuse my magnosaurus for a raptor…
Image 1 various megalosaurid species skulls. Image 2 velociraptor skull.
I remember seeing a completely random WoW screenshot with a saurid in a cooking hat and thinking "this must be my pfp on social media"
1st one is from 2020, while 2nd is recent.
See the progress?

Ignych is a combination of "Ignite" and the Greek word "Nychos" (Claw).
Nychos is based on Afrovenator, a Megalosaurid theropod that lived in Middle Jurassic period in Africa, hell even its name translates to "African Hunter". It also draws minor inspiration from Dracovenator.
An armored #dinosaur from Queensland, Minmi lived about 130mya during the early #Cretaceous. It and its other armored counterparts from #Australia and Antarctica may form their own family, but for now they are all considered "basal" ankylosaurids. #paleontology
Kentrosaurus aethiopicus is a third stegosaurid dinosaur living in an only enclosure of Seasideville Zoo’s Dinosaur Park as famous public display.

Dinosona take 2 ! He's a Therizinosaurid With some head display features like a king of saxony bird of paradise.
Vous trouvez que le T. rex a de petits bras? Attendez de voir Linhenykus monodactylus! Comme son nom l'indique, cet alvarezsauridé n'avait qu'un seul doigt, le deuxième, à chaque main. Il vivait en Mongolie à la fin du Crétacé. ✏Julius T. Csotonyi 📝

@SepiaPaws Magnosaurus was THE first megalosaurid fossil found and documented in 1923! Despite being found first, we have very little information on magnosaurus itself but based off of its younger cousin megalosaurus we can assume it was a scaled, apex predator. 🤓💖
